Monahans High School
Class Of 1965
“The Class of ’65 was definitely a ‘Class of Distinction’.
by Lynn Money
The irony is that there was very little, if any ‘social class distinction’ in our group, especially when it came time to compete for class honors in areas like Coronation, Jr./Sr. competition, etc. Any time there was a job to do, and our class honor was at stake, the WHOLE class participated. And we usually won. We worked as a united group. We banded together to make candied apples to sell, wash cars, gather wood for bonfires, go door to door, and then whoop and holler in victory.
Though these classmates have passed from this life, they still ‘live on’ in our memories, and are still an important part of the ‘Class of ‘65’.
Jack Lemmon said, ‘Death ends a life, not a relationship.’
We need not make our classmates more in death, than what they were in life. But as a tribute to their memory, we choose to dwell on the good and forget the bad, not to deify, but to simply remember the place of each one in this continuing legacy of the ‘Best Class Alive; the Class of ’65’, and realize that though they have died, they continue to live in our hearts and memories.”
